WSLにはlsもdirもmanもhelpもある

2018年末に書いた記事のアーカイブです。

小ネタです。WSLはlsとdirどちらもあったり、manとhelpどちらもあったりと面白仕様になっています。

今回はその一端としてdirとlsに対してmanコマンドを実行してみます。

NAME ls - list directory contents SYNOPSIS ls [OPTION]... [FILE]... DESCRIPTION List information about the FILEs (the current directory by default). Sort entries alphabetically if none of -cftuvSUX nor --sort is specified. Mandatory arguments to long options are mandatory for short options too. -a, --all do not ignore entries starting with . -A, --almost-all do not list implied . and .. --author with -l, print the author of each file -b, --escape print C-style escapes for nongraphic characters --block-size=SIZE scale sizes by SIZE before printing them; e.g., '--block-size=M' prints sizes in units of 1,048,576 bytes; see SIZE format below

全く同じです。実際に使ってみると表示のされ方(UI)はちょっと違ったりします。
